“In recent years, I've used my voice to tell the stories of countless species and habitats across various media, and I owe a significant part of this journey to wolves. They've taught me an invaluable lesson: nature's salvation is unattainable unless we commit equally to protecting those communities who live in close, often challenging, proximity to the wilds we strive to save. My goal is to thoroughly understand the complex relationships between humans and animals, beyond what science alone can explain. This is why I'm thrilled beyond words to be part of this project.”
